Were that I to say
What I want to say
Would you hear me out
How I’m so full of doubt
Why the fits and starts
And the falling apart
Are your many seams
Breaking ‘cause of me?
I’m like china in a bullshop
One false move and I’ll drop
It’s my broken heart you’ll be picking up
Off the floor
I’m cutting to the chase
Trying on a brave face
To make it through the day
It’s a give and it’s a take
Like water off the back
I duck through all the cracks
And skip all of the stones
Meant to break my bones
I’m like china in a bullshop
Once false move and I’ll drop
It’s my broken heart you’ll be picking up
Off the floor
On the way out the door
And all the kings horses
And all the kings men
Cannot put my heart
Together again

Unrequited

Would I say I didn’t love you out of spite?
Would I say I didn’t love you to prove I was right?
Would I say I didn’t care to make a point or two
That I will not be another game for you?
This uninvited
Unrequited
I’m so delighted
To be blindsided
Would I say I didn’t love you to be first?
Would I say I didn’t love you so I wouldn’t hurt the worst?
Would I say I didn’t care to make a point to you
That this is not just another song ‘bout a heart broken in two?
It’s time to figure out that
I’ve been such a clown
It’s time to figure out that
I’ve been such a clown for you.
Such a clown for you.

No Shame

It might be a pattern
That I'm repeating
Walking in shoes
I never saw fitting
Let them say what they will say
They'll say it anyway
Careful, a few of my wounds
Haven't healed
Some would be turning me still
On some kind of prayer wheel
Let them say what they will say
They'll say it anyway
And there was losing
In the finding
I would do it
Again if I had to
Call it selfish
Call it wicked
But there is no shame
In surviving
Watch how all of the
Sides have been formed
Fortresses made from their
Side glances and scorn
Let them say what they will say
They'll say it anyway
Careful, much of the grace has flown
With vows that
The road I'm on is
One they would never go
Let them say what they will say
I once said the same things

Have A Good Life

Cut out your heart
Everyday
To make the space
For their forays
Yet to grieve this
You feel won’t achieve much
With all that must done
Time to grow up
To dream of escape
Some muddled days
Brings on a guilt
You cannot face and
Oh the differential
From your young girl potential
What you might have become
Try to hang on and
Have a good life
A more than just get by
You have a good life
So you give up
For a someday
‘Cause you are in
A noble play
A role you won’t surrender
And you think they won’t remember
What you really ought to do
Is to get over you and...
Oh, how your heart will break
Living under your old mistakes
